I wanted to be able to find this again so I've added a post. Great information to know. Thanks.

It's like the harder you pluck a guitar string the louder it is.

Ouch! That's gonna be a minor PITA. Put one of those thick Mustang ones in next.

Thanks! After seeing the prices and rarities of the LD crank I'd be better off sending my 2.8 to LA. Boobs are cool.

Thank you guys! It's the original master cylinder so rebuild or replace is in my future. It's not bad yet and I check the level before driving but it's curling the paint up underneath. I'll shove a rag under there for now. Thanks again, you all are the best. Cliff Zup, a few people won't like this but I'm here until the end.

I'm wanting something that pulls and is torquey too. A 2.8 block, 2.4 rods and which crank? Do you use the 2.8 or the 2.4? I have these parts and am ready to start a new project after doing the research. This will be my first step/question to find out if I have the parts required. Thank you for any help on this and another big ole thanks for the big ole boobies! They make my day (and sometimes night).

Rubber Rules! Good deal I think, best of luck.

I have fluid slowly seeping from where the master fluid reservoirs bolt up to the booster. I replaced the smaller booster a year or so ago and don't remember. Maybe it was sealant type gasket, silicone or something similar. It sat for a couple of months then I finally drove it only to find a huge oily spot on the floor. The front's bigger reservoir was empty but not the smaller one for the rear's. I put a mirror under there and it's wet coming down from the crack between the masters and the booster. Seems like something should be there? Thanks for any ideas/helpful comments. Cliff

Diseazed recognized it without the landscape edging spoiler!

Sounds like some doctors I use!

Pull these hoses off and stick a bolt inside them and retighten the clamp for a temporary test. Drive the car and see if it helps, won't cost you a dime and you should be able to do it in ten minutes. Then take the metal fuel rail off and replace with rubber fuel line like Jeff G said a month or two ago. This is your motor so there shouldn't be any confusion. Front hose coming off thermostat housing, Rear hose coming off the hardline that runs behind the head,

I plugged mine to keep bugs out and it looks a little better than an open hole. But the Vapor Lock man can make that decision, it would be easier especially for testing. Yes! Just plug the thermostat housing and the hose coming off the hardline at the rear for a quick test. If it helps with your problem then go back and make it look good. Like I showed in post #202,

I think you should go ahead and plug that off but a better way to test it would be hold that tube on first start up of the day. If it gets hot quickly then you have coolant running through there for sure. But if you drive it for awhile and it feels hot that would be the exhaust manifold heating it up. I drove mine an hour or so Saturday and grabbed that tube and it was hot as hell. It's right above my header. I'll show you a quick and easy way of testing it tomorrow, I'm using my phone now and away from my laptop.

Here's his older one. I guess it was before the duals?

Is that not the coolest video?!? Probably easier to know what mods he DOES'NT have. This is older so there's no telling now but from his signature section at the bottom of his post.

I've seen trees growing through old tires but never anything like this. It's amazing, thanks for posting that. It would be considered a "green car" to a tree hugger.

Angry Bastard is my favorite. I used to think arrogant meant you had smelly armpits.

Is that two separate kits or all that comes in one? I've got some 40s that haven't been run in 20 years I was thinking of rebuilding and running sometime soon. Thanks

That must be the "simplicity" of the turbo powered 240.

Our speedo housing is the same height as the fill hole so you won't loose any oil. If it's traveled all the way to the body you do need a new top hat. I read where one guy said his was so bad it dripped on his bare foot from under the dash. Said he thought it was a bee sting. I put teflon tape on my speedo housing's threads just as an extra precaution.

I made a mistake! The plastic pipe was NOT what I found to work the best. It was a 12mm socket. That was bothering me.

No, no the top hat washer just pushes down on the cable then when you tighten the cable housing? to the speedo pinion drive on the trans. it'll tighten up there. I was talking about the oil seal you get from Nissan that needs to be driven down into the pinion gear housing. From what I read that top hat washer just keeps any oil from running down into the cable, almost like it needn't be very nice just that it has to be there. Unless yours is torn or distorted to bad, you could reuse the old one.

If it's not about half an inch thick where you bolt it to the head you'll have to figure out how to make up the difference. MSA has it down pat. A good ceramic coated header is under $300 plus free shipping. They have cheaper unpainted ones also. My opinion only, do what you want but I have them on both my Zs and couldn't be happier.
